What do these pods eat? And if they store that for years in their stomach, aren’t they just feasting on rotten stuff?
Most of the food comes from things that die at upper levels and fall down to the bottom, like say a whale carcass. And as the article notes, since the temperature at these depths is really low their bodies act as a larder where food is preserved for a long time.
Oh, must’ve missed that part. But makes sense. Thanks

Because those things aren’t invasive enough as it is.
